Yea that's kind of what I thought was cool about it too....how much gore there was. I couldn't believe they were able to put that much gore on a tv network not called HBO, Showtime, or Starz (spartacus was pretty damn bloody too). Then again in order to do a zombie show properly in order for it to succeed there's got to be lots of gore and violent scenes. I think AMC realized this and decided to really push the envelope or it would have been a flop on their part. It's gonna be a hit. This much is certain.

Okay, now I'm getting excited to see this show. I'm a huge fan of the comic book series. I've been following it for so long that it's been awhile since I've read those first issues. It will be nice to see that beginning again. Although the beginning seemed a bit typical, it was happened as it progressed that made it a special story, IMO.
